‘Genetic Panel Screens: How to use them in your breeding program

One of the goals of the Charity is to prevent or relieve the suffering of canines, which includes providing education to all aspect of canines. As many breeders are keen to use genetic testing in their breeding programs, several commercial companies offer panel tests and can report many different genetic test results for your dog. However, genetic testing can become confusing if a breeder is not fully aware of the methodology and scope of panel testing.  ‘Genetic Panel Screens: How to use them in your breeding program’ gives a clear picture of what can be achieved and is written by Professor Claire Wade BSc (Hons) PhD.
